Weigh-in

law enforcement sources said authorities were seeking information about jockey weigh-ins at the three tracks and whether the weights of jockeys were being accurately reported.

Gov. Mike Beebe said the school weigh-ins and report cards had "a lot of negative, unintended consequences" and hurt some children's self-esteem. […] Jim Raczynski, dean of UAMS, opposes weakening the law, saying 20 percent of students already are opting out of the weigh-in program.
